From the 2010 season. And it's not one of his 2 best defensive seasons. If you look deeply into his body of work in every season he deserves 3 ALL NBA defensive 1st teams. He's only been on defensive 2nd teams which is a joke. It's a popularity contest not about skill.
and forget about the fact that he is the all time leader when it comes to blocks per game average for guards.
Yes, he might have been great in 2010 but he's been awful on defense for most of this season. He's played hard on defense in literally 5-6 games this season (most of them in the last couple weeks), aside from that he's been terrible.
Tell me how well D-Wade could have done with Jameer, Lewis, Turkoglu, Gortat and a better coach. Dwight wouldn't do scrap with Arroyo, Q-Rich, Beasley and Jermaine O'Neal. Wade could have easily led that team through the ECF to the Finals.
LMAO are you an idiot.
Jameer likes the ball in his hands, Turk needs the ball to be effective, Lewis is just a run of the mill spot up shooter, and Gortat? Well he's decent.
Dwight would take that Miami team to more than 45 wins. That's for sure.
As a Heat fan I'd trade Wade for Howard straightup if an opportunity comes. Wade is a great player but a dominant big man's impact on both ends goes beyond the stats and it makes it much harder for your opponents to game-plan.
I can play the same game - Kobe or Shaq? Again its obvious that Wade is the better player, I actually think that Orlando will become stronger if you swap Howardand Wade. But if this happens Miami is the clear cut favourite for championship this year.
I think that post was erased cause I cant find it ANyway that was a silly statement. Of course Orlando will be worse by swapping Wade and Howard. Magic will have no Center.

As a fan, I wouldn't trade Wade out of respect for what he has done for the franchise.
Everything else is spot on. People fall in love with great perimeter guys, although its much more easier to find one, over center like Dwight...
